minus-squarerumschlumpel@feddit.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up55·5 days ago… do we actually have “cool looking motorcycles”, especially compared what was already available 20 or even 30 years ago?
minus-squareAsetru@feddit.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up36arrow-down2·edit-25 days agoI mean… Yeah, kind of? That’s a BMW ce 04. I guess it counts more as an electric scooter, but as there’s no empty space between your feet I guess it’s somewhere in between.
minus-squareSmokedBillionaire@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up25·5 days agoThe new Honda E Motorcycle is simultaneously design to look like it came from 1980 and 2080.
minus-squareEcho Dot@feddit.uklinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up8·5 days agoHow does the white one look old-fashioned and yet is exact same design?
minus-squareTest_Tickles@lemmy.worldcakelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up7·5 days agoEveryone knows the classic CHiPs style police bike from TV and movies. The white front fender and gas tank kind of evokes that memory.
minus-squareunexposedhazard@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up16arrow-down1·5 days agoKinda yeah. Thats a Zero XB
minus-squarerumschlumpel@feddit.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up16·5 days agoHuh, that’s kinda neat. Though IDK if that really has the visual impact that people associate with cyberpunk …
minus-squareunexposedhazard@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up20·edit-25 days agoThe sound and absurd acceleration make up for it :) There is also the Zero SR/S and that thing does 0-100 km/h in 3 seconds and 0-160km/h in 6 seconds. Tops out at almost 200km/h https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8jZpdJ1ggW8

minus-squareTexasDrunk@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up8·5 days agoThat thing would be a blast until you had to turn.
minus-squareerrer@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up9·5 days agoI mean here’s a Kawasaki Ninja from 1990, motorcycles have looked cool for a loooong time
minus-squareunexposedhazard@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6·5 days agoYeah but its not electric and makes a bunch of loud annoying noise.
minus-squarefishy@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3arrow-down1·5 days agoThe noise is one of the best parts about ICE vehicles though.
minus-squarerumschlumpel@feddit.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6·5 days agoNow that is a sick motorcycle sound!
minus-squareJoncash2@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up9·5 days agoYeah, he should have said mad max looking trucks. Because that’s where we actually are with this nightmare.
minus-squareGlytch@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·5 days agoYeah… Haven’t motorcycles always looked cool?
minus-squarerumschlumpel@feddit.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·5 days agoYeah, but you can’t just roll in on a Harley when it’s a cyberpunk dystopia.
